ZDNET's key takeaways Moft's Sit-stand Laptop Desk is a 5-in-1 foldable laptop stand that retails for $70.

The standing option is a game-changer for those traveling for work, hot-desking, or with compact home office spaces.

We all know the feeling of sitting in a desk chair for too long: fatigue, back pain, and a sore neck, among other things. If you sit at a desk for work, it's important to make an effort to stand as much as possible throughout the day.

Taking a brief walk every few hours can help, but sometimes I can't afford to step away from my laptop. To help my situation, I tested my newest everyday laptop accessory, the Moft Sit-stand Laptop Desk, which does everything the traditional standing desk can't. Let me explain.

As someone who works from home, I'm always looking for ways to incorporate physical activity into my daily routine to benefit my mental and physical health.

Moft's origami-inspired folding Sit-stand desk relieved those issues. It can fold into five working positions and has a sturdy standing option. The stand is delivered as a heavy, flat object with many creases and folds.

Upon opening it and figuring out how to fold and set it up, I was surprised by how sturdy the stand was for being so thin. I also appreciate how travel-friendly it is. It's easy to slide in your bag for travel or just to the office. From there, it can fold into five different variations: 25, 35, 45, and 60 degrees, or standing mode.
